CRISTINA RIVEROLL
VP/Operations

Passionate and creative, Cristina is driven by challenges and opportunities,
and feels she's at her best when she can work with the freedom to create
solutions within a loosely defined set of guidelines. Adaptable to change,
she balances striving for perfection with understanding human limitations
when troubleshooting opportunities at new hotels. Cristina is competitive
and results-driven, but also likes to build teams by providing consistent
direction and a clear vision while demonstrating an integrity her team can
always count on.

A Six Sigma Green Belt, Cristina is also disciplined and dedicated. She
is a yoga fanatic who incorporates difficult routines into her everyday
life, whether she's at home or on the road. Evolution Hospitality's unique
culture and focus on wellness were two reasons Cristina was attracted to
the company; the opportunity for growth was one more. She likes to travel,
particularly when she can connect in nature at the same time, and enjoys
good wine and dark chocolate.

Cristina's Six Sigma training makes her a big fan of the Guiding Principle
"Make it better than it was before." According to Cristina, "Although Six
Sigma Projects mainly apply to products, processes and services and not people,
I believe that by improving these areas and under the right situational
leadership all other principles will fall into place."

Cristina believes life is too short and too precious not to enjoy, and
fully supports "It's not how we work, it's how we live.™" In her opinion,
keeping a balanced work/play approach is crucial to positive mental health;
it allows us to recharge and improve our results. According to Cristina:
"It's absolutely necessary to keep our attention focused on our goals, but
at the same time not miss out on all the great experiences going on around
us right now. After all, when we get to our destination, we will realize
that some of the greatest lessons and values gained were found in the trip
there."
